Sky is Limitless

As kids we used sky only in geographical terms and limits in maths.
Today we know what it exactly means.

As I always wonder is sky really the limit?  Or it is our dreams, hopes and aspirations which gaze in the sky. It is these things that bound us where we are and not the external environment. It is the constant restructuring of our dreams which help us do the impossible and achieve the highest growth. Or as Albert Einstein would phrase it as Passionate Curiosity.
Yes, dream big. Let your dreams excite you and scare you at the same time. Never fear your own dreams. As fear comes near, face and kill it. Don’t submit to fear. As a person quoted," You begin to fly as you let go self-limiting beliefs and allow your mind and aspirations to rise to greater heights." All the boundaries are really in our head. It is all about what you consider yourself and not others or merely numbers.

I just don't say this without experiencing it myself, I had my actuarial science paper and five days prior to it boom, I got seriously ill. And my family told me not to appear for the paper and instead rest but guess what all that effort I'd done in the past four months would go in vain. It was a tough decision for me. I had to literally fight my family on this one. But as Woody Allen quoted," Eighty per cent success is just showing up."  Gaining courage from this I appeared the paper in a very uncomfortable manner. And guess what, I cleared it. In a world where everything seems impossible it is the thought of why we started helps us grind more and more towards our goal.

This certainly does not mean that you shouldn’t look after your health. Obviously health comes above all. But if you have little strength and possibility, don’t lose a battle without at least putting a fight. It is easy to hide behind such excuses and wait for the right time when you think you will be absolutely ready. But no one is ever ready. And to key to success and making that success limitless is to start before you are ready. Don’t just look at the clock. Do what it does. Keep Going.

The ones who have put in the hard work, tireless hours in their dreams know that relying on our own guts in much important than others. Now or later if we can dream it; with honesty, compassion and continues effort we can accomplish it.

Don't think about your competitors or enemies but if you try getting something more out of you every day, even if it is just a little. An inch today can be a mile tomorrow. And thus "Sky is not the limit. Sky is LIMITLESS."

Purpose

There was an author who was travelling to Singapore for a guest lecture or as you can say, a consultancy session. When he arrived at the airport he looked out for a taxi to take him to the hotel. The taxi driver was polite and well behaved. When they reached the hotel, the taxi driver circled the block once before dropping the author outside the hotel gate. The meter read $11 and the author had already taken the sum out to pay the fare. However, the taxi driver said that the author needs to pay only $10. The author was surprised. And he asked the taxi driver why he was charging him a dollar less. The taxi driver replied, “Sir, had I not missed the turn from the signal I wouldn’t have to circle the whole block once again to drop you here. And in that case the meter would have read $10. I can legally claim $11 but ethically I deserve only $10.” The author was actually pleased to hear this. And was fascinated to know more on why the taxi driver felt the need to be ethical. Th...

China-1, India-0

Why China and not India? International Business: Why didn't American companies choose India instead of China for manufacturing products? - Haosen Cai, Engineer I’ve come across similar questions from time to time on this very topic and I don’t recall anyone ever pointing out the true reason. The reason as to why India can’t out perform China in manufacturing is NOT because of infrastructure, it’s NOT because of skilled labors, it’s NOT because of corruption, and it’s also NOT because of “superiority of the Chinese mentality”. I’d like to answer this question with this noun:- Unpredictability Now repeat after me. Unpredictability Unpredictability Unpredictability This is the single most powerful noun that’s preventing India from being a manufacturing hub - because doing business in India is so god damn unpredictable, therefore it is impossible to calculate your return on investment when dealing with India. Bad infrastructure? No problem, that ...
